What works for me!!!!!!

Just thought I would share, dont know if its so call "healthy lifestyle". I am emotional eater and when someone or something tells me I cant have it, it seems like i want it more. So every morning I been getting up and if there is something that i been wanting i eat it ( not overeating) but if i want pizza i eat it YES in the morning. I begin my day by getting the urge out. I guess I feel guilty after and I really dont want anything else all day that is unhealthy. So the rest of the day I am watching what I eat. Then at the end of the day i do a really great work out. It leaves me with not the temptation all day of wanting to bing of not having it. But yet it gives me all day to burn off what i ate that morning. It seems to be helping because i have lost weight doing it. Is this normal?

I don't know if its normal but I like that concept! Also, I've always heard we should eat our carbs, fruits, etc earlier in the day to burn it off so it makes sense lol. Now you have me wanting pizza though, thanks a lot! :mad:

Haha :flowerforyou:

This is an absolutely yummy pizza. I wasn't sure it would work, but I didn't have any yeast and I fancied a pizza. I have included some of the toppings I have on my pizza but the nutritional information is only for the pizza base. I shall post the tomato sauce tomorrow. Just add the calories for whichever cheese you use and the toppings. I usually have a whole pizza for myself as I am not on a low-calorie diet but the pizzas are quite large and half a pizza and a side salad would be perfect for one person who is trying to eat at a defecit. These are fine to freeze if you make extra. Freeze them after cooking, or refridgerate a prepared un-cooked pizza for up to 2 days.



Pizza
Serves: 8 (4 pizzas)

330 g flour
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1 pinch salt
75 g margarine
200 ml milk

Suggested Toppings:

•Sweetcorn
•Peppers
•Onion
•Mushroom
•Olives
•Sundried Tomatoes
•Cheese: Cheddar, Mozzarella, Feta, Blue cheese
•Spinach or Rocket
•Meat if you fancy it
•Courgette
•Aubergine
•etc.

Mix the flour, salt, baking powder and margarine together with your fingers until it forms fine crumbs.
Add the milk and combine to form a dough. Divide the dough unto 4 balls, cover and refridgerate for 10 minutes or until you need them.
Roll out the balls as flat as possible (the flatter the better) on a floured surface then transfer onto baking paper.
Add the sauce and toppings you desire and then bake in a pre-heated oven at 150 for 15 minutes, then increase to 180 and bake for a further 10. If you have a combi-oven, you can turn the grill on for the last few minutes if the pizza is not "browned" enough.

Tomato Sauce

So here is a tomato sauce that works great for a pizza sauce, but equally well for a pasta sauce, or even as a soup base! Nutritional info is given for pizza sauce, but for a pasta it would serve 4 people. Works to freeze easily. The whole thing as 1 serving is only 100 calories.

Tomato Sauce
Serves: 16 (as a pizza sauce)

400 g tinned tomatoes (1 tin)
200 ml water
2 cloves garlic
2 g thyme
2 g oregano
1 pinch salt
1 cube vegetable stock
1 tablet of sweetener

Put everything except the stock cube into a blender.
Boil the sauce and add the stock cube. Continue to boil until the sauce is the desired thickness.
